This won the 2004 Dagger award as Best Historical Crime novel. And it is a terrific read. Lots of plot twists, interesting and unusual setting. I highly recommend this to anyone who likes whodunits...or historical fiction.

Lousy story and unbelievable characters. Only read this if absolutely nothing better is available.
This is a historical mystery set in a British outpost in India in the early 1900's. Different and quite good.
